Marcos: Recount in 3 provinces to overturn Robredo victory

FORMER senator Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. on Sunday said he was confident the election victory of Vice President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo would soon be overturned with recounts in just three provinces.

Marcos made the statement ahead of Tuesday’s preliminary conference on his election protest in connection with the 2016 vice-presidential race before the Supreme Court sitting as Presidential Electoral Tribunal.
